Legal Fuel Institute Faces The Challenge Of River Theft

The Legal Fuel Institute (ILF) is intensifying efforts to combat the growing wave of crime on the rivers of Northern Brazil. Recently, a barge in Itacoatiara, Manaus, was robbed, resulting in the theft of 250,000 liters of fuel. This incident raises the total amount of fuel stolen in the region this year to over 780,000 liters, according to ILF data.

Carlo Faccio, director of ILF, highlighted the urgency of integrated actions to combat these crimes during the XVIII Meeting of Fuel Resellers of the North. The event brought together authorities and specialists to discuss strategies to strengthen oversight and security on the waterways.

The Importance Of Integration For Waterway Security

Waterway security is a growing concern, especially with the increase in attacks by river pirates. To combat these crimes, ILF proposes closer collaboration between federal and state institutions. The initiative seeks to improve information sharing and enhance operations against tax evasion and criminal practices, such as fuel adulteration.

Strategies To Combat Organized Crime And Protect The Consumer

ILF is implementing several strategies to face the challenges of piracy on the rivers of the North. One of these initiatives includes strengthening intelligence and monitoring of the waterways, aiming to reduce the economic impact of thefts, which exceeds R$ 100 million annually.

In addition, the institute is working to enhance security agencies and reinforce laws to penalize illegal acts. Faccio highlights that thefts affect not only the fuel sector but can also compromise energy supply in the region, impacting socioeconomic development.

To engage the public in the fight against these crimes, ILF has created the “Report It” tool, available on its website. This platform allows consumers to report fraud and contribute actively to the fight against organized crime, strengthening oversight and security actions on the waterways of the North.

Engineers want to carve through Africa with a giant canal to bring water from the world’s second-largest river to a dying lake on the edge of the Sahara Desert that has already lost 90% of its water.

Brazil filled the Northeast with wind turbines but now faces the side effect of 705 giant blades reaching the end of their lifespan by 2032 just in Rio Grande do Norte, while the world projects 43 million tons of waste by 2050.

India approved the country’s first submerged road-rail tunnel, 15.8 kilometers dug under the bed of the Brahmaputra River.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

In just one cast, fishermen are surprised to capture 14,096 mullets in Bombinhas and close a historic season with 58,000 fish; scene recorded in the Santa Catarina paradise marks the last day of the 2026 season.

10 giant tortoises are reintroduced and, in just 6 months, trigger changes that lead scientists to investigate a phenomenon absent for 180 years; the numbers recorded on the island impress researchers from around the world.

Greek island offers free housing for volunteers, but there’s a condition: you need to take care of rescued cats.

What many people consider a weed has become a bicycle in the hands of a Chilean. José Tomás transforms coligüe, a native bamboo that grows up to five times faster than pine, into bikes, canes, and cutlery.

Only 28% of the ocean floor has been accurately mapped, less than what is already known about the surface of Mars and the Moon, and scientists consider the topic strategic for Brazil, with a global goal to map everything by 2030.

Japan wants to bury a 500 km “cargo conveyor” between Tokyo and Osaka to replace up to 25,000 trucks per day, move goods through tunnels and automated driverless corridors, and avoid a logistical collapse in an increasingly aging country.

GAC launches “Chinese hybrid Kombi” with 7 seats cheaper than Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid in Brazil; for around R$ 177,000 in conversion without taxes, the Trumpchi E8 PHEV has a 2.0 engine, DHT transmission, an electric range of 150 km, and a premium family cabin for those living in China.
